Aslan Karatsev Vs Mackenzie McDonald Match Prediction: Who Will Win This Match?
While their previous match was a close one, we can expect a close contest this time around as well. The courts at Dubai tend to play slower which is not exactly good news for Karatsev as his big, heavy-hitting game is prone to errors at times. The match may tilt in McDonald’s favour if he stays consistent and puts the balls in play, increasing Karatsev’s chances of making errors. The match is in the bag for Karatsev however, if he does not miss and fires on all cylinders.
Prediction: Karatsev to win in 3 sets.
